  • Patent number: 7231342
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product within a logically partitioned data processing system that includes multiple partitions and a management console are described for displaying messages in a language specified by the console. A language is specified by the management console. The specification is transmitted to each one of the partitions. A message is generated within one of the partitions. The partition then utilizes the specification to select a translation of the message into the language specified by the management console. The translation is then transmitted from the partition to the management console for display by the management console.

  • Patent number: 6917364
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer implemented instructions for managing a set of memory resources used to store texture objects in a data processing system. A texture manager allocates memory to a current texture object in a set of memory resources. A stored texture object, handled by the texture manager, is selectively removed in response to an inability to allocate sufficient memory to the current texture object. The allocating and selectively removing steps are repeated until the current texture object is allocated sufficient memory. The repeating step is halted in response to an absence of any stored texture objects, handled by a texture manager, being present in the first memory resource. Stored texture objects, handled by another texture manager, are selectively removed in response to an inability to allocate sufficient memory to the current texture object. Memory is allocated in the set of memory resources to the current texture object in response to selectively removing stored texture objects.
